We're ready to roll. When we drew Wyoming for this quarter's advo-cation, we decided to roll our visit into an existing plan. Being out in the world much of the time, we're car-free at our home base in Seattle. We just picked up our rental car, packed it tightly (we're even bringing our kayak) and are ready to hit the road.

Being huge fans of hiking and the outdoors, we also like to camp at least once each summer. We'll be doing a lot of it over the next couple of weeks as we make our way to three National Parks. This time, we're even doing some backcountry camping - leaving the car behind to set up camp deep in the woods. We're a little freaked at the thought but at least did a practice run carrying heavy backpacks (loaded with weights) on a recent hike just outside of Seattle.
